2023 Wismer-Wingfield Chardonnay, VQA Twenty Mile Bench Chardonnay reminiscent of certain Pinot NoirsSuch startling purity that it shocked me and brought a tear to my eye! Wine can stir emotions. Lemons on crunchy chalk and lemon drop acidity. Low tide smells with a nice volume of fruit incredibly rich, yet taut. Chalky mouthfeel, a mineral precision. This is the jive! Wow! A grainy mineral finish. A taut clothesline of a wine. A shocking, nervous electric minerality this will age for a long, long time. A word from Mary: Chiselled! 272 cases made.
